Florals & Sparkle

I’ve been so into printed & coloured jeans lately (so much more fun!) and I’m loving these floral ones from maryjulian. Also can’t wait to launch this sparkle pullover too – coming to you soon in 3 pretty, versatile tones!

Thanks Amanda for the Bimba & Lola addition to my arm swag!

Wore my Accessori Astaroth Skulls Connector ring to the 987fm studio earlier that day, and found Vernon A wearing a skull finger accessory too!

Have a lovely weekend with your loved ones!

Aztec & Denim

I love a basic denim shirt – it goes with everything, and it perfectly dresses down for day anything too posh or stuffy.

Checks & Balance

I love the fashion of the Swingin’ 60s – hello, Mad Men, anyone? The 50s and early 60s dress shapes were all about femininity – many dresses of that period accentuated the hourglass silhouette.

However, perhaps due to the fact that I have nothing close to an hourglass shape, my favourite part of 60s fashion was the later part, when the mod side took centre stage.  I love Twiggy-esque silhouettes; mini-dresses, nude lips, Vivier flats…and Mary Janes rock!

Pssst. Peggy from Mad Men loves her checks, plaids and polka dots too!

Big lights will inspire you

So I took a trip to NYC over Thanksgiving weekend – what a great (albeit extremely short) little trip!

Till the next!

XOXO

Scallops & Beading

It’s been awhile – I know! December has been so crazy, but a good kind of crazy – the Christmas kind – just 8 days to Christmas!!

Christmas calls for all manner of sparkle & shine, even in the most casual outfits. Am loving the detail on this 1920s-inspired top – the lace, scallops and intricate beading dresses up even humble blue denim.

Hope you had yourselves as wonderful a weekend as I did!

Studs & Monochrome

This was about two days after I lopped off my hair, and ironically I was one of the people least shocked by, and needing the least time to ‘get used to’ this look. What do you think of my shorter ‘do?

I’m a fan of colours, so it’s not very often I choose a monochrome look. I am in love with this maryjulian Hensley Studded Shirt though – I’ve kept pieces in both white and black – the fit is super flattering, and the studs instantly add interest to the simplest of outfits – no colour needed!

I love a boyfriend silhouette, so decided to play that up with peg-leg trousers. Had to keep some femme in the look though, so cue the heels and arm candy, heh!

Swallows & Asymmetry

I have so many pictures I’ve been meaning to share, so apologies that these aren’t the most current – my hair is now short! ;p I have a real thing for prints, and I love the asymmetry and slim fit of this skirt. Produced a dress version for DDF here, which I find perfect for both formal events (dressed up with killer heels, a chunky necklace and a tiny clutch) as well as for everyday wear (with sneakers and a slouchy backpack).
